his fourth wife, and seemed to be living
happily with her. He had acted strangely
for the past few days, and evidently has
become insane from over-study Mrs.
Ward says she was lying down with the
little girl for rest when Ward entered
the room in great excitement, saying:
Il want to speak to you, and it you
don't speak before l count five will shoot
you.''

fore she could do any thing to save her

ribbons of wreath that, faded long

company during life she shall not be
set apart from us after DEATH" On the
day before All Souls two special mes
sengers left Vienna for Bavaria, bear
ing with them two OF the finest wreaths
ever formed by human hands. The
first wreath, of laurels and roses. was
sent by the Emperor with orders that
it should be deposited in the vault of
St. Michaers church upon the tomb of
King Louis of Bavaria. The second
was sent to the Starnberg Lake, where
in the dusk hours of All Souls Day the
messenger rowed to the spot where the
King was found drowned, and dropped
the wreath of jasmine and ferns,
fastened by white dove with wings
outspread, into the water. This was
sent by special order of the Empress.
